Consumer Issues and Concerns

The device has been tested by the customers who bought it. The most important issue that was addressed is whether the pillow heats up or emits heat, as the advertisement says it is completely safe. Up to this point, only a few complained about the pillow not working as marketed, becoming very hot in the area where the battery compartment is and posing a danger to children and even adults who might get burnt if trying to change the batteries. However, these were isolated cases and most of them involved unfortunate manufacturing defects. The majority didn’t complain about the pillow emitting dangerous heat.

Another issue that concerned customers expressed in more than just one Bright Light Pillow Starlight Square review is the cleaning methods of the pillow. Since it is an object mostly used by children carrying it around all day or sleeping with it, it can get dirty very quick. Washing it traditionally is out of the question, of course, but the material allows you to clean the spots with stain removers, as long as you don’t have much water infiltrating inside it.

Long term functionality is something that still needs to be tested, as the pillow is marketed to work as described for hundreds of hours. Some people described it as working for no longer than three months, without mentioning how many hours they managed to keep it glowing or how hard did they really tapped it for shining. Again, the majority’s voice made itself be heard and the conclusion is that the pillow, although not indestructible, as nothing is, works well enough for prolonged periods of time is you handle it with care.

Mistakes are made all the time and if you get the wrong product in the package, measures must be taken. Also, manufacturing flaw, though possible, find their resolve.
